Should residency program directors look at applicants’ social media activity?
Please take a look at my new post on Physician's Weekly: My thoughts on whether residency program directors should review applicants' social media activity.
I think our system is very broken and revolves around money. I work in a hospital and I have met great med school graduates in the same boat. Some of these people would be better doctors than existing licensed doctors that I have worked with. If a support group forms the mission should be to address the problem to Congress and get a bill passed that allows Mrs to practice or at least be guaranteed a residency after all the hard work and devotion. I hate to see so much injustice while everyone is collecting their money at the expense of innocent people that want to be caregivers.
Unknown, just about everything revolves around money. I appreciate what you say and your intentions are good but it’s not that simple.
Guaranteeing a residency to everyone who graduates from any medical school is impossible. There are barely enough training positions now. No other occupation guarantees a job to everyone who wants one. Just ask a law school graduate.

This is not something you'd want put on your office door with your real name and face next to it.
